This cover comes in the days when Bitcoin seems to be on the rise again, as Halloween is celebrated and Async decides to shut down its platform.

All these things had to be on a Clod. Thus, Bitcoin becomes a Superhero, a bit of a rude one, who returns to lift the fortunes of the crypto world and does so riding a pumpkin supported by a clod floating in space. Around it, to symbolize the ascent, instead of simple green arrows, I inserted arrows reminiscent of Snowfro's Velocity series. Finally, I wanted to include a tribute and thank you to the Async platform.

The cover is made with the Pixelart technique using Photoshop for the design and After Effects to animate it. The cover uses my usual clod style. The artwork was drawn in pixel art, with bright colors and sharp, defined shadows, a style very close to the world of cartoons like The Simpsons. Each part is drawn in layers, with the Step 1 technique.

As already written above, there are several references on the cover:
- Bitcoin
- Halloween
- Async
- Snowfro velocity series

Creating this cover for the Relion Gazette was very interesting and pushed me to think a little outside my usual box. Creating a cover on current themes and in a few days, for me who always works very slowly, was a bit of a challenge, but in the end, I managed to achieve the final goal, so I am satisfied with it
